In a patent filed by Sony Interactive, the gaming company shows its intent to allow soft-pause game modes, which will allow gamers to continue their gameplay even when distracted. Of course, this will be possible with the help of AI-assisted tools, and softened difficulty.

Always been more of an if it ain't broke kinda guy. Didn't realize the pause button was broken or that going back a save because you forgot to hit the pause button was such a big deal.

So lemme get this straight. Let's spend two trillion dollars, screw up the memory, graphics and storage market, cause water shortages, power outages, device destroying power surges and risk sinking the entire world economy.

You know, so you don't have to tap the pause button or, heaven for bid, go back a save and replay two minutes of game which, in fact, is supposed to be an enjoyable enough experience anyway.

You know what? If you so loathe the idea of hopping back a save and replaying a few minutes of game, maybe you don't like the game you're playing. Put down the controller, turn off the console and get you some of that Missile Command goodness. They got'em pre-installed on stand alone joysticks for like eight ninety-nine at the Dollar General.

Sans power surges and hepatitis-c outbreaks.
